Fairway Financial Group Scammed by Fairway Financial Group, Keith Fowler, Karen Kennedy, Terry Williams, and Sarah Walker Blackwood New Jersey

I filled out an online application for Fairway Financial Group and Keith Fowler contacted me within 2 days. He said that I had been approved for a $5000.00 loan and I had 3 options in order to secure the loan. Send a 3 month advance, finance my home, or a co-signer. I sent 3 month advance and the money was supposed to be deposited in my account on the next business day. Well no funds. I called Mr. Fowler back and he played like he knew nothing. I was transferred to Mr. Terry Williams who was rude and I demanded to speak with someone in accounting. I was then transferred to Ms. Karen Kennedy by way of Ms. Sarah Walker's ext. (ext. 3). Well Ms. Kennedy stated that Mr. Fowler had calculated the loan wrong and I was instructed to send another 3 months worth. Well against my better judgement I did, and of course no funds. I spoke with Ms. Kennedy and then I demanded a refund, I was informed that, that is a fifteen day process. The fifteenth day has passed and no refund. I acknowledge that I have been scammed but I want to help other people. Beware of these people. I did do research but it was too late and the first time I googled this company none of this came up. I guess it is the Christmas holidays and they know people are desperate for money. These people sound really legit. They send you paperwork, their figures are correct and they were really polite and I've even spoken with Keith on Friday (12/19/2008) but as of 12/20/2008 I have been unable to reach him and extensions 2 and 3 are both of his extensions. Be very careful, it is too good to be true. I am wondering if this Fairway Financial Group is the same as Fairway Lending. I bet!!!!
